The purpose of this award is to recognize leader- ship at an early stage and encourage individuals to grow, nurture, and further contribute to the growth of the profes- sion, as well as the Society. Bronze Medal Award Dr. Amber N. Black, research scientist, Sigma Division, Los Alamos National Laboratory, N.M., will receive this year’s award “for outstanding contributions to the development of engineering solutions during laser and electron beam processing of materials.” Prof. Emmanuel De Moor, assis- tant professor, metallurgical and materials engineering, Colorado School of Mines, Golden, will receive this year’s award “for outstand- ing contributions in the field of ferrous physical metallurgy and volunteerism in support of ASM and other organiza- tions at the local, national, and inter- national levels.” Established in 2014, the honor recognizes ASM members who are in early-career positions, typically 0 to 10 years of experience, for significant contributions in the field of materials science and engineering through techni- cal content and service to ASM and the materials science profession. Bradley Stoughton Award for Young Teachers Prof. Josh Kacher, assistant professor, Georgia Institute of Technol- ogy, Atlanta, will receive this year’s award “for his passion and joy of teaching, his sustained teaching re- cord, research excellence, enthusiasm, adaptabilty and commitment to men- toring students in research and explor- atory contexts.” This award, accompanied by $3000, was established in 1952 in memory of an outstanding teacher in metallurgy and dean of engineering who was president of ASM in 1942. The award recognizes young teachers of materials science, materials engineering, and design and processing, by rewarding them for their ability to impart knowledge and enthusiasm to students. The recipient must be 35 years of age or younger by May 15 of the year in which the award is made. Henry Marion Howe Medal Eric A. Lass, Mark R. Stoudt, Maureen E. Williams, Michael B. Katz, Lyle E. Levine, Thien Q. Phan, Thomas Gnäupel-Herold, and Daniel S. Ng will receive this year’s award for their paper entitled “Formation of the Ni3Nb δ -Phase in Stress-Relieved Inconel 625 Produced via Laser Powder-Bed Fusion Additive Manufacturing,” Met. Trans. A, Vol. 48, 2017. The award was established in 1923 in memory of a distinguished teacher, metallurgist, and consultant, to honor the author(s) whose paper was selected as the best of those published in a specific volume of Metallurgical and Materials Transactions.
